<p>The MacVoices Live! panel of <strong>David Ginsburg</strong>, <strong>Guy Serle</strong>, <strong>Andrew Orr</strong>, <strong>Jim Rea</strong>, and <strong>Kelly Guimont</strong> takes a look at the Super Bowl ads that had a tech bent, especially the crypto and Amazon Alexa ads. Were they effective? One of them took down the company’s server, and one of them seemed to be open to misinterpretation. Was the use of a QR code a good idea or a dangerous precedent? (Part 1)</p>
